MILWAUKEE (WITI) – Multiple employees of a restaurant in Milwaukee Popeys lost their jobs after a wild feud was captured on Wednesday by WITI Reports.

Richard Fure told WITI he wanted to avoid the driving line tonight, so he went inside.

"I said, I said to myself, 'Aunt, a lot of people work here,' says Fure.

Fure said he could feel the tension and grab hold of his cellphone to start recording.

"I heard one of them scream, 'This is a battle,' Fure said." They ran out the back of the bars, OK. Now, there was a battle. I didn't get it on tape. "

Moments later, a fierce fight broke out near him, with several employees throwing punches.

" Honestly, I didn't even want to take the chicken sandwich. " "Soon, the situation eased – and Fure left empty-handed." Honestly, I didn't, "I won't even have a chicken sandwich," Furet said.

When police arrived at the scene, they found that there were no weapons and no arrests had been made. It is unclear what sparked the dispute.
